Execution is all in the details. When looking for team members who could put in that extra 1% to completion, Dirk guaranteed products would be developed with a high level of excellence and consideration. Dirk epitomized the necessary link between design and development mentoring widely across not only the design team but engineering and product management on the needs for accessibility, best practices in front end development, and innovation through design prototyping. He is regarded highly as a senior individual contributor within the design and development industry offering regular conference talks on accessibility, css best practices, and javascript techniques. It is refreshing as a designer to be able to know that your every pixel is in good hands and that the shared outcome of your efforts will be nothing less than extraordinary. I'm proud to continue to work alongside Dirk in my career.

I've loved working with Dirk. He has an unusual sensitivity to issues of design and is driven to building stuff that's not only usable but delightful. He's super-smart and loves a good challenge. And with his warmth and good humor, he's always a pleasure to work with. AND he has a really cool dog.
